Cast Iron Burgers

June 17, 2019 by Faith 1 Comment

Cast Iron Burgers are juicy and flavorful, and easy to make on your stovetop in a cast-iron skillet.

For a lot of us, grilling is the preferred cooking method in summer. Grilling is quick and easy, and doesn’t require heating up the kitchen to get dinner on the table! And surprisingly, it’s a very versatile cooking method. My dad has told me several times that he could cook a cake on a grill and I actually believe him, lol!…

Chewy Cinnamon Pecan Brown Butter Oatmeal Cookies

June 10, 2019 by Faith 1 Comment

Chewy Cinnamon Pecan Brown Butter Oatmeal Cookies have nutty, caramel flavor notes and a lovely balance of chewy and crispy textures. I went through a phase where I loved chocolate chip oatmeal cookies. I’d add just a pinch of cinnamon (because it’s a classic addition to oatmeal cookies), and use extra brown sugar to give the cookies caramel notes. With a little flaky sea salt sprinkled on top (like my Small Batch Bakery Style Chocolate Chip Cookies), they had a balanced flavor profile and were completely addictive....

Parmesan Peppercorn Dressing

June 3, 2019 by Faith Leave a Comment

Parmesan Peppercorn Dressing is a beautiful blend of savory Parmesan flavor, peppery heat, and tangy creamy texture. And it takes minimal effort to make! I’m a condiment girl all the way. I like “the works” on top of hot dogs and burgers, blue cheese for my wings, mustard to dip pretzels in, and ketchup and/or hot sauce drizzled on eggs. For me, the dressing can make or break a salad!...

Keto Spanakopita Dip

May 27, 2019 by Faith 2 Comments

Keto Spanakopita Dip is rich and super cheesy with four kinds of cheese, and garlic and dill bump up the flavor! I never heard anyone complaining of too many cheesy dip recipes. (I mean, is there such a thing as too much cheese?!) With that in mind, here I took inspiration from delicious Greek cuisine and made a low carb version of Spanakopita, no crispy crust needed!...

Cold Brew Coffee (And an Affogato Recipe)

May 20, 2019 by Faith 23 Comments

Every iced coffee-lover should know this easy method for how to make Cold Brew Coffee for iced coffee! Turning it into Affogato (which means “drowned” in Italian) by adding a scoop of vanilla gelato or ice cream is just icing on the cake. When I first moved to Florida for law school, I became a little bit of an iced coffee junkie. I developed a Starbucks-almost-every-morning ritual without realizing how easy (and cheap!) it is to make cold-brewed coffee at home....

Sugar Free Strawberry Jam Recipe

May 13, 2019 by Faith Leave a Comment

Sugar Free Strawberry Jam has just the right amount of sweetness and comes together in just 20 minutes! Use local strawberries in season (or local strawberries that have been flash-frozen) for the most intensely-flavored jam. Growing up in Buffalo, strawberry season was usually right around the third week of June. My sister and I looked forward to strawberry picking with mom every year! It’s one of those things where instinct sort-of takes over. You’re in a field of deliciously ripe strawberries; you’ve already picked a flat of strawberries (when you only meant to pick half a flat); and yet you just can’t stop picking, lol. […]...

Herbed Eggs Baked in Cream with Feta

May 6, 2019 by Faith Leave a Comment

Herbed Eggs Baked in Cream with Feta makes a stunning brunch, perfect for a special occasion like Mother’s Day! It’s gluten free and naturally low in carbs. With Mother’s Day less than a week away, I wanted to share a beautiful brunch recipe to make for mom. As soon as I was old enough to cook it was one of my favorite hobbies, so when celebrations like Mother’s Day came around I loved having a reason to get in the kitchen. My sister and I would whip up pancakes, French toast, or eggs for mom. This recipe for Herbed Eggs Baked in Cream with Feta […]...

How to Make Cauliflower Rice

May 1, 2019 by Faith Leave a Comment

This step-by-step guide for How to Make Cauliflower Rice will show you just how quick and easy it is to make. It’s a great side dish for so many meals! Within the past 5 years or so, cauliflower rice has become hugely popular. You can now find “riced” cauliflower in the produce area of many regular grocery stores. And you can even frequently get frozen riced cauliflower too! The thing is, you pay a premium for fresh riced cauliflower, and frozen riced cauliflower is a bit too mushy for my taste. I’m going to show you how to make cauliflower rice, and you won’t believe […]...

Spinach Strawberry Salad

April 29, 2019 by Faith Leave a Comment

Spinach Strawberry Salad is a healthy, delicious lunch that makes great use out of fresh, sweet, and juicy local strawberries! I’m always surprised at how many people tell me they don’t like salad because it’s boring! I guess that depends on what you put into it. I mean, if it’s just a bowl of leaves I would consider it rabbit food too, lol. But salad doesn’t have to be that way. With a variety of sweet and savory flavors, creamy and crunchy textures, and a quick homemade vinaigrette to pull it all together, my Spinach Strawberry Salad is anything but boring!...
